This episode is about our labor and whether we're making it count. I'm a firm believer that if you keep doing what you're doing, you'll keep getting what you got. So as we celebrate Labor Day, it's important to think about the world of work and how we are spending our time and expending our energy. As the cost of most everything climbs higher, do we want to keep getting more of what we're getting or do we need to do something different to get better results? Are we going to wait on that annual raise or will we take proactive steps to give ourselves a raise? Is the time that we're spending "laboring" on a 9 to 5 job or in our online business yielding the results we need from a personal and professional perspective? These are the questions we should be asking ourselves as we celebrate this weekend.
